  • The micro-motion feature is one of the important characteristic information of spatial target recognition. However, the existing multifunctional Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) radar usually has to allocate a large number of continuous time resources for target micro-motion feature extraction after target searching and tracking, which leads to a low real-time performance of target recognition and poor overall performance of radar system. To solve this problem, this paper presents a multi-target micro-motion feature extraction method for MIMO radar based on tracking pulses. First, according to the azimuth information of each target, the MIMO radar transmitting waveform is designed, and the tracking pulses are transmitted simultaneously for targets with different directions. On this basis, by considering the micro-motion feature extraction performance and the target tracking performance synthetically, the transmission time series of the tracking pulses are optimized. Finally, the narrowband tracking pulses are directly used to simultaneously extract the micro-motion features of the targets in different directions, which makes it no longer necessary to allocate additional radar resources for target feature extraction. Consequently, the real-time recognition performance and the working efficiency of radar are improved significantly. Simulations demonstrate that when the signal-to-noise ratio is larger than –10 dB, the micro-motion features of multi-targets can be extracted accurately, which verifies the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
